Help Any way to set multiple default 'Signatures' for Several Email Accounts on Android?

Hi :)

Quick Question... I have a few Email Accounts set up on my Droid2 with Froyo, and I was wondering if there was anyway to set a different default Signature for EACH one - since one is personal, one is business, and one is for a website I run etc?

Right now, even though I set up a Signature under an individual account, it populates no matter what account I'm replying in or sending messages from. I always have to delete it to reply to Face Book for example, from my personal primary email address.

THANKS! :)
 
Within Gmail:
* Go into the Inbox for one account.
* Menu Key-->More-->Settings
* That will bring you to a menu just for that account, where the first entry should be "Signature."
* Repeat for each account.

That worked just fine for my 3 Gmail accounts.

Also, K-9 Mail (in the Market) also supports multiple signatures.

I am not sure if the same works under Yahoo! mail, but in the generic "Email" app that came on my D2G, there is just one Signature setting. :/

Yeah, that seems to be what's happening... only one catch-all signature being applied to everything since I only have one gmail and the rest are all being grouped under the generic app on the Droid2.

Well, that answers my question at least, thanks a lot!

So K-9, then, would allow for separate signatures for each webmail account (GoDaddy, Hotmail, and Yahoo are what I have)? I am going to check it out - awesome!

Edit: JUST downloaded, going to check it out. I bet it even has other feature improvements over the generic app.

PS: I was wondering if you knew if this App (K-9) would automatically delete emails on the server, or keep them there and ONLY delete them off my phone? I only ask, because I don't want it to, I will experiment with it and see, but I like to sit down a couple times a week at my 'real' inbox on a PC and delete/sort messages into their folders, and don't want my phone to delete them after I've read them.
PPS: Last question... but does K-9 update my phone if I delete something from the server from a PC (kind of the opposite of the questions I just asked above)?
